USADA makes me want to pull that trigger!



Given the imbroglio surrounding  USADA's  dogged pursuit of Lance Armstrong. I thought it prudent to remark on the confederation of dunces that is USADA. Wouldn't it be nice if  they focused on something that actually made a fucking difference. Don't get me wrong, if old Lance is found to be cheating ( and I suggest given what significant jumps in Peloton performance we have seen in the 90's THE MAJORITY OF THE BIG BOYS ARE!!!) nail him and all of the peloton cheats.

However USADA can be more than a little dopey when they also focus their attention on the supplement industry. While perusing their website I found a lovely little section devoted to 'warning consumers' about the hazards of supplement use. Astonishingly based on their work the best guidance they can come up with regarding consumer warnings is the following list  (I have abbreviated the list but warning you may bleed from the nose when subjected to this stupidity):

USADA considers products to be of high risk when they display any of the following characteristics:
  • Muscle-building (body building, weight gainer), weight-loss, sexual enhancement, or energy “supplements.” 
  • Labelled with proprietary blends.
  • Contain “trademarked” or “patented” ingredients or blends of ingredients.
  • Contain a long list of ingredients
  • Ingredients that you don’t recognize.
  • Contain herbal ingredients.
So our good friends at USADA have harnessed their intellectual power and the best advice they can provide the masses with, in regards to supplement use is 'be wary of products with a long list of ingredients'!! 

Hmmm based this valuable information I suggest that USADA can respectfully pucker up
 AND KISS MY ASS!!


Stay Strong
